The result is a smart system of coordinated cable entry, cable routing and cable protection solutions that meets the standards laid down for hygienic production plants. This system enables you to meet the future challenges in respect of hygiene and comply with the highest standards.
What is Hygienic Design?
In a word, Hygienic Design describes the easy-to-clean design of parts, components and production facilities. In hygiene-critical production environments, the prevention of microbial and particulate contamination of products is a key requirement. Geometric equipment design and the choice of suitable materials have a decisive influence on the suitability for clean production.

Our products in food production
New in the range: the Cleanplus TRI
With the new Cleanplus TRI, PFLITSCH offers a unique solution for applications in which, in addition to the highest level of hygiene safety, absolutely reliable EMC protection is essential. This is ensured by the proven and patented TRI spring, which is already successfully used in the blueglobe TRI and UNI Dicht TRI models. The Cleanplus TRI enables full-surface shield contacting (method) with outstanding shield attenuation values and offers certified hygiene safety in accordance with the hygienic design guidelines of the EHEDG.
The Wire-tray Trunking in practical application: Rothaus brewery
The Badische Staatsbrauerei Rothaus AG, producer of the well-known Tannenzäpfle beer, needed to route cables for a new bottling plant. The requirements: hygienic, safe and clear cable routing. The brewery ultimately opted for Wire-tray Trunking from PFLITSCH, not least because of its stability and corrosion resistance. But the customer was also convinced by the installation enabling an individual cable layout. For maximum hygiene, in some process areas parts of the Wire-tray Trunking were even welded with the covers. The Rothaus brewery has relied on our Wire-tray Trunking for 10 years already and has even obligated its suppliers to install it.
Certifications – safety signed, sealed, delivered
We set high standards for our solutions. Take the blueglobe CLEAN Plus, which was the world’s first cable gland to be developed according to Hygienic Design principles and certified by the EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group). Its successor, the Cleanplus, has also been certified in accordance with the EHEDG’s principles, albeit in accordance with the new, stricter requirements. Like many other products in our range, it too is FDA-compliant and has proven its outstanding hygienic design in numerous tests. For example, its resistance to cleaning agents and disinfectants has been successfully tested by the Ecolab laboratory.
Award-winning
